Abstract Clinical features that are prognostic indicators of placebo response among dyskinetic Parkinson's disease patients were determined. Placebo‐associated improvements occur in Parkinsonism, but responses dyskinesia have not been studied. Placebo data from two multicenter studies with identical design comparing sarizotan to for treating accessed. Sarizotan (2 mg/day) failed improve compared placebo, both treatments improved baseline. Stepwise regression identified baseline...

Background: Neuroimaging studies have used magnetic resonance imaging-derived methods to assess brain volume loss in multiple sclerosis (MS) as a reliable measure of diffuse tissue damage. Methods: In the CLARITY study ( ClinicalTrials.gov NCT00213135), effect 2 years’ treatment with cladribine tablets on annualized percentage change (PBVC/y) was evaluated patients relapsing MS (RMS). Results: Compared placebo (–0.70% ± 0.79), PBVC/y reduced treated 3.5 mg/kg (–0.56% 0.68, p = 0.010) and...

Cladribine Tablets (MAVENCLAD®) selectively reduce absolute lymphocyte counts (ALCs) in patients with multiple sclerosis. The recommended cumulative dose of is 3.5 mg/kg over 4–5 days months 1 and 2 treatment years 2, followed by prolonged efficacy no additional treatment. After the cladribine-induced reduction, ALCs recover to normal within each year most patients. Those slow ALC recovery can develop Grade 3–4 lymphopenia, especially those ≥ lymphopenia at start 2. Guidelines allowing...
